My whole family sucked my blood; after being reborn, the little cook went on a killing spree.

"All right."

Su Wan Ning was very uneasy and deliberately raised her voice, "Uncle, Aunt, this is my aunt, not some petty thief. Don't be afraid. But you all know about my family's situation. I... well, I have to take care of my aunt first."

"Tsk, you'd better watch out."

The neighbor has left.

That day, Jiang Tao'er came and made a scene. The people of Shili Village clearly spread the word about what the Lin family had done, and they all felt sorry for Su Niangzi.

At such a young age, he can run a shop; he's much more capable than the other kids in the family!

Su Wanning helped Li Shi into the house and complained to her, "You come here without any hesitation, do you really think you're going to steal money from my shop?"

"Our shop doesn't have any money, it's all herbs. Isn't she afraid of poisoning herself by stealing them?"

Su Tang's words were barbed.

"you!"

Li didn't want to anger Su Wan Ning over a child. Since Zhao Biao Tou had already disappeared and no one had any evidence to gossip, she still needed to repair her relationship with the girl.

She swallowed her curses and forced a bitter smile. "Wan Ning, how can you keep not coming home?"

"Aunt, you can see that I'm busy with the shop. Once I make some money, I'll use it to support you."

Su Wanning gave a firm but not overly forceful response.

He was quickly trying to guess Li's purpose. Logically speaking, Lin Jiabao had already paid back Xiong Ye's debt, so what was Li here for today?

Stealing money might just be a side effect, so that leaves only that one thing.

"Good child, I knew you were filial."

Li took it seriously and felt very relieved, but she still felt that Su Wan Ning was not right. She was not the same girl she remembered who would listen to whatever she was told.

Although he was gentle and his words were pleasant to listen to, he would suddenly go crazy from time to time, especially his face. He would smile at her, but it gave her goosebumps and sent chills down her spine!

Li didn't want to stay with her any longer. Clutching her stomach, she looked distressed. "You haven't been home for the past few days. Your aunt has to take care of your uncle and is worried about you. She hasn't had an appetite. Sigh."

"I think my aunt is quite strong; she can climb up such a high wall."

Su Wanning smiled broadly.

Su Tang turned and ran out.

Then, deafening laughter erupted from the courtyard.

Li: "..."

Don't be angry, don't be angry. It has nothing to do with that brat's laughter!

Just as she had calmed herself down, Su Tang rushed in again, biting her lip and suppressing a laugh as she looked at her.

Li is so annoying!

She suppressed her anger and brought up again that she hadn't eaten and was feeling unbearably hungry.

Fortunately, this time Su Wan Ning didn't say anything, just told her to wait a while, and then turned and left.

Su Tang followed her out and whispered, "Sister, are you really going to cook for that old woman? Or should I do it?"

She followed Su Wan Ning around, her hands itching to try things out. Whether the food she made was edible was no longer her concern, hehe.

"Don't worry, when have I ever suffered a loss?"

Su Wanning took out the failed version of Huaiyu steamed cake she had made a few days ago, threw it into a wooden bucket like trash, and brought it over to Li Shi.

The medicinal diet recipes given to the Crown Prince were all developed by her own hands.

But in those three years of her previous life, she was never able to do it again, so it would inevitably take some getting used to picking it up again.

Although these were all failed attempts, they were still much better than what was sold outside, and they were all made with good ingredients. It would be such a waste to throw them away. Lin Yuwei asked Li Shi to give her the recipe, and even if Li Shi didn't want to eat them, she had to force herself to eat them!

Su Tang followed behind her, her face full of admiration.

No wonder it had gone sour after five or six days, but my sister wouldn't let me throw it away. Turns out it was already useful. How clever!

"This is?"

Looking at the bowl of steamed cakes, Li wrinkled her nose. "Why do they smell both sweet and sour? Have they gone bad?"

She pressed it casually, and when she lifted her hand, a transparent thread stuck to her finger. She immediately exclaimed, "Hey, Su Wan Ning, what are you up to! Giving me something broken?"

"aunt?"

Su Wan Ning seemed startled and took several steps back, her eyes reddening. "Auntie, this is all my hard work these past few days. If you hadn't come over in the middle of the night and there was nothing to eat in the shop, I wouldn't have been willing to take it out."

She was furious. "This is... but... anyway, these are all very precious things! They're specially for stimulating the appetite and soothing the stomach. I was thinking that if you like them, I'd make you some new ones tomorrow. It's such a hassle, and your aunt could help me out if she's here... But, forget it, since you don't like them, just throw them all away!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward and tried to snatch the steamed cake away.

"No, I never said I didn't like it!"

Li clutched the basin to her chest, her eyes gleaming.

She was still thinking about how to get the prescription, but this fool just asked her for help. It was like getting something for nothing!

She grabbed one, popped it into her mouth, and chewed it heartily. "Delicious! Tasty!"

Steamed cakes are indeed fragrant, soft, and fluffy, but in such hot weather, they've gone sour after several days, and have an indescribable taste, almost like they have a musty smell.

"But these are all a bit spoiled, let's forget about them and not eat them."

Su Wanning made a very insincere suggestion.

"No, I'm fine. So many people outside can't afford to eat, but I can still have steamed cakes. It's all thanks to Wan Ning for taking care of me."

After eating one, Li felt a little nauseous. "Um, Auntie is full."

"My aunt probably doesn't like it, right? Never mind..."

"Eat, eat, eat! I love to eat!"

Li stuffed several large mouthfuls into her mouth, nearly vomiting.

In my past life, when I was forced to eat rice porridge that resembled swill, half-cooked steamed buns and dumplings, and disgusting fish and shrimp, was I also in this wretched state?

Su Wan Ning didn't feel particularly pleased; in fact, she felt a bit annoyed.

"Alright, if you don't want to eat, then don't."

Mrs. Li was taken aback for a moment, then asked anxiously, "Will you make me a new one tomorrow?"

She added, "Your aunt will help you, so you definitely won't get tired!"

"Ha, of course we'll do it."

Su Wan Ning turned and left, saying, "Let's do it now, come on, my dear aunt."

"Now? Not sleeping anymore?"

Li entered the city during the day and hid outside until it was completely dark before daring to crawl into the courtyard. She was hungry and tired, and all she wanted to do was eat her fill and get some sleep!

We haven't even had a proper meal, and now they won't let us sleep?

"Aunt, I already told you, this Huaiyu steamed cake is really troublesome. There won't be enough time to make it tomorrow."

Su Wan Ning had already prepared everything and dragged Li Shi into the front shop.

The Li family was stunned by the brand-new, beautiful, and tidy shop.

"Did you actually buy this shop?"

"Quickly, Auntie, grind this dried yam into powder. It has to be very fine; we'll have to sift it later."

Su Wan Ning pretended not to hear, piled the things in front of her, and began to talk about them one by one.

How much Poria cocos should be used, how much maltose should be used, and how should the jujubes be processed?

Completely bewildered by the fragmented information, Li said, "Speak slowly."

"Oh, I forgot, my aunt is too old to remember. If it were my cousin, she would definitely remember it after hearing it just once."

Su Wan Ning sat motionless, letting Li Shi do everything for her.

That's how you make a lasting impression.

Hopefully, Mrs. Li will remember all of this soon and send the prescription over; Lin Yuwei will be very happy.

The two stayed up all night and finally managed to get Li to remember the recipe.

"Oh, your aunt is here?"

Xu Lingxi arrived early in the morning and immediately tried to pull them away, saying, "I need to go see your uncle; I have some good news to tell him."
